  • Patent number: 10994316
    Abstract: A straightening system is provided to perform straightening in conformity with a shape pattern of a the material. The straightening system includes a cooling device configured to spray a cooling fluid in a predetermined pattern with respect to a plurality of regions of the material, divided in a width direction, to cool the material that is heated in a heating furnace and then passes through a rolling mill. The straightening system also includes a straightening device configured to straighten the material passed through the cooling device. The straightening system further includes a flatness measuring system configured to measure flatness of the material passed through the cooling device and a controller configured to receive data of the flatness of the material from the flatness measuring system and to control the cooling device in response to the data to enhance the flatness of the material.

  • Patent number: 10967410
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a cooling device and a cooling method capable of controlling, by section, the flow of coolant supplied in a widthwise direction, the cooling device comprising: a base frame connected to an external cooling fluid supply line, and disposed to be able to spray coolant onto a material that passes through a rolling mill after having been heated in a heating furnace; and a nozzle assembly disposed on the base frame, and spraying a cooling fluid in an arbitrary pattern onto a plurality of sections divided along the widthwise direction of the material to minimize a deviation in temperature in the widthwise direction of the material. Through this configuration, the flow of coolant supplied in the widthwise direction of a material can be controlled to be varied, thereby being capable of minimizing a deviation in temperature in the widthwise direction of a high temperature material.
